A San Diego Marine Terminal Redevelopment Initiative effort was launched in March 2008. The objective is to collect enough signatures to place an initiative on the November 2008 ballot in San Diego, California. 62,000 signatures have been submitted versus a requirement of 34,462 valid signatures, so it is likely the measure will earn a spot on the ballot. July 24 is the deadline for checking the signatures.[1]

The initiative calls for various improvements at San Diego's 10th Avenue Marine Terminal, which is southeast of the San Diego Convention Center. The improvements might include a hotel, sports arena, a park, a stadium or some other project. If the ballot initiative is approved, the authority to make these these redevelopment decisions would bein the hands of the San Diego Port Commission.
